This week’s photos are from Petra, Jordan. These rock buildings were carved out of the cliffs in the 6th century as the capital city of the Nabataeans. Now it is Jordan’s most popular tourist attraction.

    Thanks for sharinmg those photos. I went to Petra about 7 years ago. I’ve been to many other places since then, but petra remains on the top of my list of the most beautiful places I’ve been to.
